Copyright has a long tradition at BOEHMERT & BOEHMERT. Our attorneys possess extensive experience and a high level of expertise in all advisory matters across the diverse creative areas.
Our clients include international and national media organisations, software companies, film production companies, record companies, publishing houses, artists, writers, composers and actors and even symphony orchestras.
We advise our clients in all aspects of copyright law, publishing law and media law.
- We offer advice and representation across all aspects of the creation of copyrighted works. E.g. we offer proof of priority through the deposit of the work with us or the registration of pseudonym works in the register of authors at the German Patent and Trademark Office.
- We draft and negotiate copyright licensing contracts.
- We advise on matters of copyright infringement and offer legal representation in court infringement proceedings; we are also experts in the prosecution of copyright piracy.
- We can further ensure the protection of copyrights through trademarks, patents or design patents; in this, patent attorneys and attorneys at law work hand in hand.
- We accompany any potential changes to German Copyright law. For example, partners of BOEHMERT & BOEHMERT sit on advisory committees for the Ministry of Justice in Berlin.
- We work in all copyright relevant areas: fiction and non-fiction literature, newspapers and magazines, music, film and television, software, internet, fine arts, design, stage and theatre, architecture, photography and merchandising.
